Oh, XBC 2 isn't going to be a XCX sequel. At the same time, I DON'T think it's going to be a sequel to Shulk's adventures. Too much of the details are different.
Yeah, I can't see this being connected to the events on the Two Titans unless there's such a time difference that it may as well be a new setting anyway.

I sure said that!

All I know is that I see something that looks vaguely like a Monado.

I think Xenoblade Chronicles X would have been better served with a different name.

Xenospace.

See, it's still Xenoblade, but the meaning of the title is altered.

Whereas Xenoblade 1 was about an otherworldly sword, Xenoblade X is about the BLADE organization operating on an alien world.

I have a message from another time...

Xenoblade Wii is about the Monado (which Monado is another issue)

Xenoblade X is about Elma.

Xenoblade 2 is about a Homura.

They are all (initially) red.

Which Monado? Probably the one that's a blade.

[up][up][up]Objection! Xenoblade X is about NLA.

[up]Wrong, the Monado in question is programming. tongue

Of course, the series also shares the whole single-player MMO setup in gameplay terms, too.

I will always like calling in-battle techniques Arts and having those Arts color-coded.

I sure said that!

I like how I know what each art does just by looking at each symbol. (Red 12 O'clock sword = attack from the back for massive damage)

A manga called Black Torch that just released this month. The first chapter is very similar to the beginning of Bleach but it's pretty good.

Hey, the opening of Bleach was the best part. I'll keep an eye out, thanks.

Anything of particular interest in the video? I saw elsewhere that there's reason to think that the whole game is on the backs of the giants creatures, and that Rex is one of the people who climbs down the sides.

Dude, that thing inside the Monado is the motherfucking Zohar.

[up][up] The big thing is that Homura, the lady in red, is actually the Monado (or what we're assuming to be the Monado) in human form. The blonde haired lady, Hikari, is also a Blade. Also, Blades are immortal unless either their core (likely that gem on their chests) is destroyed or their Driver is killed.

This came from someone translating the bit of game script that was shown during the trailer. Although some of the details can inferred from the imagery alone.

We also know that Homura, Nia (likely the catgirl), and Hikari will be in a hot springs at some point.

Ah, yeah I knew that. Like, even before those notes were translated. [lol] The coloration (and yes the Zohar) made it obvious.

So we're up to two quasi-Robot Girl characters.

  • An otherworldly sword
  • BLADE, arriving from another planet
  • Strange beings called Blades.

Okay, sat down to watch the video and... the only thing I've learned is that Tirkin's might mean chain attacks return. Which is ehhhhhh. Still, I washed the dishes so it had a purpose.

Thinking about it, could Homura be a Seven? The Xeno-series steadily rejected transhumanism and the Elysian Fields were part of the Greek underworld. Maybe Rex is looking to heal her, while Elysium is actually a place where Blades go to die?
